What's something you used to believe in strongly but no longer do?

G’day, members! I hope your week’s been treating you kindly so far. Wednesdays can feel a bit like wandering through a maze—you’re not entirely sure where you’re headed, but you’re hoping there’s a reward at the end.

Now, here’s something to mull over: What's something you used to believe in strongly but no longer do? For me, it used to be the idea that everything has to be perfectly planned. Life's shown me time and again that some of the best moments come from letting go and embracing the unexpected.

The government.
 
From my youth I became a confessed Agnostic not believing the Holy Bible. The Lord God had other Ideas, as if He was looking down from Heavan, wiggling his finger over the people on His Created Earth and pointed at me and said "Philip John Reynolds I have a little job for you too do my son!"

At age 46 on the 23rd July 2000 I was so convinced from reading 27 books that the Holy Spirit put in my hand. Not studying the Holy Bible or going to a church Service, I had a full immersion baptism, confessing my Sins and claiming The Lord God, Jesus The Christ and The Holy Spirit as my future guides.

All from Studying the Australian National Flag, that goes all the way back to Genesis in the KJV Holy Bible. I am now writing the book about it all, as I have given lectures on the subject and people have been fascinated.

Australia was not invaded, it was the Lord Gods plan to take the Holy Bible His-tory to the four corners of the world for His Glory! Not the Ego's of men! Amen! & Amen!
 
I no longer believe in "It won't happen to me" senarios, because it will and it has 💔
 
I used to believe the in a strong robust government! but no more it seems that matter what country you choose, usually turns out more corrupt than the last one, till you get to the, stage that no government is fit for purpose and the solution is becoming more clearer with each passing day. Select the most corrupt and out them against the, thereby ending any perceived corruption until you hopefully regain a government for the people. There is no perception of recidivism in the future?

Used to take around 5 vitamin tablets oe more a day and now I've narrowed it down to 1 and 2 every second day as I don't believe I need them. Actually I also have a natural supplement every day as well.
 
I Believed in the immigrants who assimilated and helped make Australia the lucky country.Missing now is the respect for acceptance to enter ? This is creating erosion of freedom and democracy and safety of everyday living
 
I used to be far left, but since April 2020 I did an 180 degree turn to the right for many, many reasons.

Creative writing on your part?
 
Not when it's the truth!
Are you telling the truth please? Your writing was like reading a fairy tale albeit religious. Let me know the title of your book please if it is in existence. 🌷
 
Hi Jo
As I said I am 5/6ths the way through writing the book. I have given lectures to Men's breakfasts at the Living Faith Community Church in Innaloo Western Australia. Men who know the scriptures quite well and who are requesting the story to be published. Also to family Chritian home groups, who also want to know when the story is published.
Jo where are you in Australia?
Take care and stay safe! God Bless!
regards
Phil
